WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Junior Charlotte Fetherston scored twice and junior Skyler Moore finished with two assists, as the sixth-ranked Williams College women's ice hockey team scored a trio of first-period goals during a 4-1 season-opening triumph against Connecticut College Friday evening in Lansing Chapman Rink.

"We had a great first period tonight," said 16th-year head coach Meghan Gillis. "Eva Bentley made some key saves. We are excited to continue to grow together and see what this group can do."

Sophomore Grace Johnson opened the scoring and tallied her first collegiate goal for the Ephs (1-0-0, 1-0-0 NESCAC) with 9:11 remaining in the first period on the power play. The scoring sequence began with first-year Maggie Swanson's shot being blocked with a diving effort by a Connecticut College defender, and then Johnson stepped up and buried the rebound into the back of the net. Swanson picked up her first collegiate assist on the goal.

Williams extended its lead to 2-0 on another power-play goal with 6:23 on the scoreboard in the opening period. Sophomore Savana Littlewood fired a shot from straight on that was denied by the Camels' goalie, and then Moore gathered the rebound and slid a pass across the crease to sophomore Becca White at the left post, who buried the game-winning tally.

With 5:31 remaining in the first period, first-years Ella Bond and Avery Cohen tallied their first collegiate points, as they orchestrated Fetherston's goal from point-blank range. During the Ephs' final goal 2:57 into the third period, junior Zoe Rosenberg made an outstanding play, stealing the puck, and then utilizing an indirect pass off the boards to Fetherston, who skated down the ice and ripped a shot from the right faceoff circle into the right side of the net.

Eva Mayo scored for the Camels (0-1-0, 0-1-0 NESCAC) with 12:39 remaining in the third period. Bentley earned the win in net, stopping 27-of-28 shots in 60 minutes of action for a .964 save percentage.

Williams went 2 of 5 on the power play and killed off both of the Camels' opportunities on the advantage. The Ephs held a 35-28 advantage in shots on goal, including a 17-6 lead during the first 20 minutes of action.

The Ephs compete against Connecticut College on Saturday, Nov. 21, at 6 p.m. in Lansing Chapman Rink.
